Additional information

Rugged Simplicity. Prime Power When You Need It.

The Wildcat Frontier was designed and tested with rugged simplicity in mind. This single-phase, mobile/towable generator delivers prime power in an open-frame package—no frills, just reliable, industrial-grade performance. Built with liquid-cooled, EPA Certified engine platforms, the Frontier is engineered for harsh environments and extended unattended operation.

Prime Power in an Open-Frame Package

Unlike enclosed generators designed for residential neighborhoods, the Frontier is built for working environments where function matters more than form. The open-skid design provides:

  • Easy Access: All components readily accessible for service and maintenance
  • Better Cooling: Maximum airflow for demanding conditions
  • Lower Cost: No enclosure means more value for your investment
  • Lighter Weight: Easier to transport and position
  • Rugged Durability: Industrial construction without delicate panels

Available Power Options

Built for Prime Power Operation

The Frontier series is engineered for 24/7/365 continuous operation, utilizing an industrial-grade, 1,800 RPM fixed-speed engine and a liquid-cooling system to maintain optimal temperatures during indefinite run times. Unlike standard standby units, the Frontier features a commercial-grade alternator and ruggedized components throughout its entire architecture, providing the durability and reliability required for true prime power applications in the most demanding environments.

Fuel Options

Our Frontier series solutions are available in two primary fuel configurations, each engineered to address specific geographic, logistical, and environmental requirements. The Tier 4 Final (4F) Diesel option represents the cleanest diesel emission standard available, utilizing advanced aftertreatment to reduce particulate matter and nitrogen oxides by over 90%. This configuration is the premier choice for properties without natural gas service or remote locations where propane delivery is challenging. It is particularly well-suited for customers who prioritize on-site fuel autonomy, as diesel can be stored in large quantities and treated with stabilizers to extend its shelf life for up to two years, ensuring mission-critical performance even in the most isolated environments.

Alternatively, our Natural Gas and Propane (NG-LPG) units provide a clean-burning gaseous fuel solution with the potential for an unlimited supply. This option is ideal for homes and businesses with existing natural gas infrastructure or properties utilizing large-scale propane tanks. Customers prioritizing lower long-term operating costs and reduced maintenance often select this configuration, as gaseous fuels do not suffer from the degradation issues common with liquid fuels. These units are especially effective for microgrids, nano-grids, and extended outages where a continuous fuel supply is required to outlast the limits of on-site diesel reserves.

Why Choose the Frontier

The Frontier series comes equipped with a comprehensive set of standard features designed for industrial resilience, including a durable Tier 4F Diesel or NG-LPG engine, a commercial-grade alternator, and an intuitive digital control system. The unit is built on an open-skid mounting with integrated lifting points for simplified site positioning and utilizes non-proprietary components to ensure easy maintenance and long-term serviceability. To meet specific environmental or operational needs, available options include block and battery heaters for reliable cold-climate performance, remote monitoring capabilities for off-site management, and custom fuel configurations tailored to unique project requirements.
